ICBA Independent Banker, the award-winning magazine of the Independent Community Bankers of America and the nation’s number-one source for community banking news, recognized Vinings Bank in Smyrna as an ICBA Top Performer in its June issue. The bank’s recognition was based on its earnings and operational efficiencies for 2013.

As part of its annual recognition of high-performing ICBA member institutions, ICBA Independent Banker pulled year-end FDIC data to identify the community banks with the highest performance metrics — those with best return on average asset ratios and the best return on average equity ratios — in six asset-size categories. The rankings separately recognize top-performing Subchapter C corporation banks and Subchapter S corporation banks.
